Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp olive or avocado oil
  • 2 lbs grass-fed ground beef
  • 1 medium zucchini, diced
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 1 red pepper, diced
  • 1 green pepper, diced
  • 1 cup matchstick carrots
  • 1 jalapeno pepper, diced
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 1 15 oz. can tomato sauce
  • 1 15 oz. can fire roasted diced tomatoes
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1 tbsp chili powder
  • ½ tbsp cumin
  • 1 tsp tumeric
  • ¼ tsp cayenne pepper (more to taste)
  • ½ tbsp smoked paprika

Instructions

  • Heat oil over medium high heat in a large cast iron skillet. Add onions, peppers, garlic, jalapeno, and carrots. Saute until they begin to soften, about 5 minutes, then turn heat to low.
  • Meanwhile, brown the ground beef in a separate skillet until cooked through. Add the beef to the veggies.
  • Add tomato sauce, crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, broth, and spices and stir to combine. Bring to a boil over medium heat and then reduce heat to low. Simmer for 30 mins to 1 hours - the longer the better! Enjoy!

Notes

This can also be made in a crock pot - just brown the ground beef first and mix all ingredients into the crock pot. Set on low for 8-10 hours.
